    Default We are only 3 months away from getting past this...

    ...so why put everyone at unnecessary risk? Don't understand it. Trump isn't President, so you don't need to do things for the sake of the economy so he doesn't look bad. He's fucking gone. This isn't a partisan issue, so why are you Conservatives making it one?

    Texas and Mississippi are going to get people killed...those people wouldn't have to die if we just had a little bit of patience.

    Full vaccination is right around the fucking corner, and we can't control ourselves for 3 more months after doing this for 12?

    By July, we're going to be done with this! Why the fuck can't we just hold on and stay the course until then? Why must we force people into unsafe environments and conditions? For what? FOR WHAT?

    What is "opening" Texas in March going to accomplish that "opening" Texas in May or June wouldn't?

    I am going to stay the fuck out of those states, but the problem is that the people in those states won't stay in those states.

    They will bring their disease-ridden, ratlicking, fat faces to MY STATE and spread their shitty disease like Typhoid Mary, who like you also didn't wash her hands or wipe her ass.

    You're the biggest pussy here because you never leave your house anyway, but you want people to sacrifice themselves for the sake of your fucking shitty little ego.

    What a pussy.

    Probably because this has less to do about the economy than it does to serve as a distraction from the State governments complete screw up on the energy issue, at the expense of texans lives and suffering.

    He's shocked that folks who want freedom still want freedom even when Trump isn't President. Stunning.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    What freedom? You speak very vaguely and ambiguously about "freedom" all the time, but I don't think you actually know what that word means.

    Please point out some examples (that aren't this thread of course, you said "all the time") of me using the word freedom "all the time" in some way that is confusing to you.

    Hopefully by the time summer vacations begin, most will have been vaccinated.

    Bingo. He knows ppl are itching (or should I more accurately say "dying"?) to get out and mingle and socialize like none of this ever happened. If he can grant them that, despite the fact that it's stupid at this time, maybe they'll forget how he screwed them over during the recent winter outbreak.

    I cannot wait for the elections in 2 years, thinking a whole lot of Repubs in Austin are going to lose their jobs.

    Let us hope so. TX is already trending towards the purple.

    We are getting closer every year to blue, we are already purple. Many are too young to remember, but Texas was a Blue State and did not change until 1976, since then a lot of redrawing of district lines has made the Repubs secure in their positions, thing is with the influx of more people, often from Blue regions and the Repubs screwing up time and time again, the swing is back towards the Blue side of things. I think that the Repubs will be in Big trouble if the right candidates run against them in 2022 and who knows about the federal level in 2024, four years is a lot of time for things to continue to change. Remember this, without Texas, California and NY the GOP stands almost no chance of winning the WH.
